Assessment is a fundamental issue in research in science education,
in curriculum development and implementation in science education
as well as in science teaching and learning. This book takes a
broad and deep view of research involving assessment in science
education, across contexts and cultures (from whole countries to
individual classrooms) and across forms and purposes (from
assessment in the service of student learning to policy
implications of system wide assessment). It examines the
relationships between assessment, measurement and evaluation;
explores assessment philosophies and practices in relation to
curriculum and scientific literacy/learning; and details the
relationships between assessment and science education policy. The
third in a series, Valuing Assessment in Science Education has
chapters from a range of international scholars from across the
globe and staff from Monash University, King's College London and
University of Waikato. The two previous books in the series
examined research relevant to the re-emergence of values in science
education and teaching across the spectrum of science education as
well as across cultural contexts through the professional knowledge
of science teaching. This third book now moves to examine different
aspects of generating understanding about what science is learnt,
how it is learnt, and how it is valued. Valuing Assessment in
Science Education will appeal to all those with some engagement
with and/or use of research in science education, including
research students, academics, curriculum development agencies,
assessment authorities, and policy makers. It will also be of
interest to all classroom science teachers who seek to keep abreast
of the latest research and development and thinking in their area
of professional concern.
